Music is complex, so let's make it simple.

The Musical Architects Online Course is a blueprint that will guide you step by step through the writing and production process of creating a professional recording.


(-> I use and recommend LOGIC PRO for this course but the concepts are universally applicable for most styles and DAWs)







Why I created this course

If you’re anything like me you spent countless hours and trials and errors trying to get the sound that’s in your head into the real world.

There are not enough hours in the day to watch all the youtube videos that seem intriguing. But in the end you just have to do it and that’s why I created hands-on tutorials that will save you time and aggravation by guiding you step by step from the basic idea to the final mix, so that you can get to release your own unique style of music.



Who I Am:

Hi, my name is Marc Dold and I have done it thousands of time - for major artists, movies and TV-shows as well as my own indie releases.


Now let me help you translate your musical ideas into releasable productions.

You have music in you so stop making demos and re-listening to ideas of potential greatness and finish your own music productions on a level you can be proud to show it to the world.




What's inside:

Learn at your own speed with more than 9 hours of hands-on videos
Laid out in 12 sections that create a blueprint that works in almost any style for your future songs

What you will learn:

We will cover the six areas you need to master in order to become masterful songwriters and producers including:
- making a beat
- writing an emotive and interesting chord progression
- crafting strong melodies and hooks
- creating your own unique sound palette
- mixing and mastering your song


What knowledge is required?

Knowing the basics of a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) like LOGIC PRO (preferred and used in the class), Pro Tools, Ableton, etc. It’s helpful to have good, basic computer knowledge, basic song-writing skills, and the ability to play simple chords on a keyboard and/or guitar. But, good ears can make up for a lot.

Musical Architects starts easy but goes deep into the process of creating a professional production.
